Passion, Motivation, Wisdom..

Renatta M. Cooper, from the video clearly amplifies passion, motivation and wisdom when working with children and their families. She states. working with families are very entense, but she feels it her duty to meet the expectation of the children and their families. She feels that we as educators must stay current with what is going on with policies makers and etc when it comes down to law making decisons. She talked about two people in her lives, who are no longer living. Ace- Inspired and pushed her to always continue to learn more and never get to comfortable. Always look for new resources.

QUOTE from Renatte M. Cooper,  "Arm knowledge with only of the past that we have to prepare children for the future".



Leticia Lora, is another person from the video that I admired. She was very well spoken and resourceful. She stated that her motivation and encouragemant came from her family and friends. She stated as professions, working with children, we have to development internal and external skills, resource skills, and advocacy skills. It is important to take on these skills for early intervention.

QUOTE from Leticia Lora, "Education is an internal research". What I took from this statement is that when working with children and their families, as a professional person, you have to have the passion, love, and wisdom from within to do what you do. And to never just seattle, always look for new ways to be resourceful and knowledgable; so that you can offer your best to children and their families.
